Homologous Recombination: To Fork and Beyond [PDF]
Genes, 2018 Accurate completion of genome duplication is threatened by multiple factors that hamper the advance and stability of the replication forks. Cells need to tolerate many of these blocking lesions to timely complete DNA replication, postponing their repair for later. This process of lesion bypass during DNA damage tolerance can lead to the accumulation of

NF-κB regulates DNA double-strand break repair in conjunction with BRCA1-CtIP complexes [PDF]
, 2011 NF-κB is involved in immune responses, inflammation, oncogenesis, cell proliferation and apoptosis. Even though NF-κB can be activated by DNA damage via Ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) signalling, little was known about an involvement in DNA repair ...

Non-Contiguous Protein Recombination [PDF]
, 2013 Swapping sequence elements among related proteins can produce chimeric proteins with novel behaviors and improved properties such as enhanced stability. Although homologous mutations are much more conservative than random mutations, chimeras of distantly-

Improved Gene Targeting through Cell Cycle Synchronization. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Gene targeting is a challenge in organisms where non-homologous end-joining is the predominant form of recombination. We show that cell division cycle synchronization can be applied to significantly increase the rate of homologous recombination during ...

Mutational Effects of Mobile Introns on the Mitochondrial Genomes of Metschnikowia Yeasts
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 It has been argued that DNA repair by homologous recombination in the context of endonuclease-mediated cleavage can cause mutations. To better understand this phenomenon, we examined homologous recombination following endonuclease cleavage in a native ...

PLoS ONE, 2007 BackgroundDictyostelium discoideum amoebae are haploid and, as they share many features with animal cells, should be an ideal creature for studying basic processes such as cell locomotion.

Determinants of selectivity in Xer site-specific recombination [PDF]
, 1996 A remarkable property of some DNA-binding proteins that can interact with and pair distant DNA segments is that they mediate their biological function only when their binding sites are arranged in a specific configuration. Xer site-specific recombination

Nature Communications, 2017 The choice between homologous recombination and non-homologous end-joining is largely influenced by cell cycle. Here the authors show that APCCdh1 promotes homologous recombination by removing USP1, allowing polyubiquitinated histones to recruit BRCA1.

Measuring Homologous Recombination Rates between Chromosomal Locations in Salmonella
Bio-Protocol, 2019 Homologous recombination between two similar DNA molecules, plays an important role in the repair of double-stranded DNA breaks. Recombination can occur between two sister chromosomes, or between two locations of similar sequence identity within the same
